Lou Wall is a multi-award-winning comedian, composer and content creator. Over the past 4 years, Lou’s shows have been recognised for their genre-bending, politically savvy comedy, and garnered critical acclaim.

Lou’s solo show That One Time I Joined The Illuminati was nominated for three Green Room awards and took out two artist development awards at Melbourne Fringe. In 2022, Lou wrote and released their debut comedy album, Bleep Bloop which was nominated for Best Original Score at the 2022 Green Room Awards.

Their previous works include Lousical the Musical (Green Room winner for Best Production, Best Writing and Outstanding Online Achievement in Cabaret), the black comedy cabaret A Dingo Ate My Baby (Malthouse Theatre, MICF), It’s Not Me, It’s Lou (Melbourne Fringe) and Lou Wall’s Drag Race (Griffin Theatre, Melbourne Fringe).

On television, Lou has featured in ABC America’s Reef Break and ABC Australia’s FISK. In 2023 they worked as a writer and presenter on ABC TV’s pop-info show WTFAQ, and toured their Moosehead-awarded Lou Wall vs. The Internet in Australia and abroad, smashing international debut at Edinburgh Fringe Festival later that year.

Lou’s collaboration with Jean Tong and James Gales, Flat Earthers: The Musical – a West Side Story-meets-QAnon queer pop spectacular – was recently presented by Hayes and Griffin Theatre Companies

The Bisexual’s Lament – an hour of deranged PowerPoints, gay (derogatory) musical comedy and mentally ill hot takes – was nominated for Most Outstanding Show at the Melbourne Comedy Festival in 2024 and smashed its subsequent seasons in Edinburgh and London.
